REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF THE New York Weather Bureau. REPORT. Ithaca, N. Y., January 1, 1897. To the Honorable the Commissioner of Agriculture of the State of New York: Sir. — I have the honor of transmitting to you an account of the operations of the New York Weather Bureau during the past year, together with a financial statement, summaries of weather and crop conditions, and a report on the climate of the State. The routine work at the central ofQce has been carried on efficiently and without breaks. The clerical employes of the State are the same as in previous years; and the National Weather Bureau has continued the detail of Mr. R. M. Hardinge as assistant to the director, which place he has occupied since 1890. The maintenance of extensive systems of meteorological, crop and forecast-display stations has necessarily occupied nearly all the time of our clerical force; a fact which is to be regretted in view of the pressing need which exists for climatological inves- tigation and experimental work in meteorology. The service now comprises 112 well distributed meteorological stations, 81 of which are equipped with thermometers and rain-gauges and 31 with rain-gauges only. Daily readings of self-registering maximum and minimum thermometers are made at all regular stations; and in addition, about one-half the number report the temperature at 7 a. m., 2 p. m. and 9 p. m., which method gives a valuable check on the daily averages as obtained from the 10 Eighth Annual Keport of the maximum and minimum readings. Observations of wind, cloudi- ness and miscellaneous phenomena are included in the scheme of daily records throughout the State. The precipitation is registered at the close of each day, and also, when practicable, after each storm, with notes of the time of beginning and ending of rainfall. Twelve new stations have been equipped with thermometers and rain-gauges this year, as follows: Canajoharie, Montgomery county; Catskill, Greene county; Dryden, Tompkins county; Elka Park, Greene county; Frauklinville, Cattaraugus county; Little Falls, Herkimer county; Lockport, Niagara county; Lake George, Warren county; North Lake, Herkimer county; Prim- rose, Westchester county; St. Johnsville, Montgomery county; Straits Corners, Tioga county. In addition to these, the former special rainfall stations at Bolivar, Allegany county, and Ridge- way, Orleans county, have been provided with thermometers. Special rainfall stations have been established at Niagara Falls, Niagara county, at Watkins, Schuyler county, and at the Intake Reservoir near Little Falls, Herkimer county. The State is fortunate in securing the co-operation of volun- tary observers at three points of the Mohawk valley and at the Adirondack station, North Lake, in view of the difficulty hitherto experienced in obtaining observations from these sections of the State. Owing to a change of residence of observers, or to other causes, four regular stations have been discontinued this year, namely: Hamilton, Madison county; Turin, Lew^is county; Ma- lone, Franklin county; and Varysburg, Wyoming county. The rainfall stations, Ellis and Attica, have also ceased to report to the central office. New York Weather Bureau. 11 Fifty-five thermometers and twenty rain-gauges, purchased from the State appropriation, have been issued to new stations, or to replace those rendered unserviceable by accidents. All State property is issued to observers on the agreement that a full account shall be rendered of any breakage or injury which may occur. A tabulated summary of the observations at all stations is published each month, together with a general review of weather conditions and charts showing the average temperature and dis- tribution of rainfall over the State. An edition of 800 copies of the monthly review is published; and of the more complete annual review, 1,000 copies. A weather-crop bulletin was issued on Tuesday of each week during the farming season, or from April 25th to September 26th. The list of correspondents contributing information to the bul- letin includes ninety persons, representing forty important agri- cultural counties; so that a full and adequate account of agricul- tural interests, as affected by current weather, is presented week by week.

The average of the mean temperatures at twenty-seven stations possessing records for pre- vious years was 2.7 degrees below the normal value; deficiencies occurring at all stations excepting Angelica, Buffalo, Humphrey and Waverly. The deficiency of temperature was greatest in eastern and northern New York. The mean relative humidity for the State was 79 per cent. The mean dew point was 18 degrees. The average precipitation was 1.85 inches, as derived from the records of eighty-nine stations. The greatest general pre- cipitation ranged from 2 to 4 inches in western New York and the western Adirondacks; the least being under one inch along the eastern border of the State. The maximum local amount was 4.42 inches at Turin, and the least was 0.75 inches at Easton. A list of the heaviest rates of precipitation will be found in the table of meteorological data. A moderate and quite general snowfall occurred on the 7th, 9th and 15th, and heavy rain, turn- ing to snow, occurred on the 24th, the maximum amounts falling in western New York and on the coast. The average snow- fall for the imitate was 12.2 inches, as derived from the reports of sixty-one well-distributed stations. The total amount was about 12 inches over the Eastern and Western plateaus, 20 inches on the Northern platea j, 8 inches in the Hudson valley, 15 inches in the St. Lawrence valley and Great Lake region, and 10 inches New York Weather Bureau. 31 in the Central Lake region. The greatest local snowfall was 40.0 inches at Turin. The average precipitation at twenty-nine stations possessing records for previous years was 1 inch below the normal amount; deficiencies occurring at all stations except- ing Plattsburg, Potsdam, Buffalo, Fort Niagara and Rochester. The amounts were the least shown for January by the records of Port Jervis, covering 13 years; Setauket, 11 years; Albany, 23 years; Honeymead Brook, 16 years; Boyds Corners, 26 years, and North Hammond, 19 years. The average number of days on which the precipitation amounted to 0.01 inches or more, was 10.1; the number being above this average in western New^ York and below it in the eastern section. The average number of clear days was 7.0; of partly cloudy days, 8.9; and of cloudy days, 15.1; giving an average cloudiness of 51 per cent. The maximum cloudiness obtained in western and northern New York. The prevailing wind direction was from the northwest. The average total wind travel at six stations of the National Bureau was 7,788 miles; being below the usual values at all stations excepting New Y'ork city. The maximum velocity recorded at the above stations was 48 miles at Buffalo on the 1st, and at New York city on the 24th. Hail fell on the 3d, 23d, 24th and 29th, and sleet on the 3d, 18th, 19th, 23d, 24th, 2oth, 29th and 31st. Solar halO'S were observed on the 17th and 2Sth, and luna? halos on the 2d and 22d. The weather of January was generally pleasant, with more sunshine and less rain and snow than usually obtain in the winter months. The average temperature was below the normal, a deficiency occurring throughout the period from the 2d to the 32 Eighth Annual Repout of the 17th and an excess over the normal on nearly every day there- after. The Gth was the coldest day which has occurred since this Bureau was established in 1889, and probably for a much longer period. The deficiency of precipitation was most marked in southeastern New York, and ground water was reported as very low in several localities of that section. The ground was generally free-from snow through the second decade and toward the close of the month; only ten days of thin sleighing being reported from Malone, while in the Great Lake region the dura- tion was rather longer. Lakes and streams which were open during the warm period late in December, were frozen about the close of the first week, and a heavy ice harvest had been com- pleted along the Hudson river and* in other localities, before the warmer weather of the latter half of the month. Less than the usual wind travel was reported from the western and inland stations, the maximum velocity being reached along the sea- coast. Eight areas of high pressure (approximately) passed eastward over the vicinity of this State in January, the respective dates being the 2d, Gth to 8th, 11th, l.jth, 18th, 23d, 28th and 31st. After the 2d of the month a nearly permanent high pressure system became established over western British America, and the drift- ing anticyclouic areas generally originated in that region. De- pressions of temperature accompanied all of these areas, but the only notable cold wave attended the second area, which traversed nearly the entire United States between the 3d and 7th. The low-pressure areas, nine in number, in most cases devel- oped over the southern and central States, or over the ocean, and generally passed in the vicinity of New York. Depressions passed north of the State on the 1st, 3d and 13th; along the coast on the New York Weather Bureau. 33 IQtli, 17th and 25th; and over the State on the 9th, 19th and 25th. The maximum wind velocities accompanied the coast storms, while heavy mins, changing to sleet and snow occurred during the passage of the eighth area from the central valleys over l^Tew York. The precipitation due to the remaining storms was in most cases light. The rapid fall of temperature during the storm of the 24th caused a deposition of ice upon tree branches, and some damage to fruit prospects may have resulted, especially near the lakes. 3 34 Eighth Annual Report of the INFetkorological Data Location of Stations.

The average atmospheric pressure (reduced to sea level and 32 degrees Fahr.) for the State of New York during February, was 29.90 inches. The highest barometer was 30.70 inches at Ithaca on the 17th, and the lowest was 28.70 inches at New York city on the 6th. The average pressure was highest in south- western New York, and lowest near Lake Ontario. The average barometer for the month at six stations of the National Bureau was 0.19 inches below the normal. The mean temperature of the State, as derived from the records of 71 stations, was 22.8 degrees; the highest local monthly mean being 31.3 degrees at Setauket, and the lowest 13.9 degrees at Potsdam. The highest general daily mean was 40 degrees on the 29th, and the lowest was 8 degrees below zero on the 17th. The maximum temperature reported was 63 degrees at Erie on the 28th, and the minimum, 43 degrees below zero at Canton on the 17th. The mean monthly range of temperature was 69 degrees, which exceeded the greatest value previously recorded by this Bureau by 8 degrees. The greatest monthly range was 94 degrees at Canton and Saranac Lake, and the least was 50 degrees at Fort Niagara. The mean daily range was 16 degrees; the greatest daily range being 50 degrees at Saranac Lake on the 18th, and the least degrees at North Hammond on the 29th. The mean temperatures of the various sections of the State were as follows: The Western Plateau, 24.4 degrees; the Eastern Plateau, 23.4 degrees; the Northern Plateau, 18.1 de- grees; the Atlantic Coast, 30.5 degrees; the Hudson Valley, 26.2 degrees; the Mohawk Valley, 20.4 degrees; the Champlain Val- ley, 18.4 degrees; the St. Lawrence Valley, 16.5 degrees; the Great Lake Region, 24.9 degrees; the Central Lake Region, 24.9 54 Eighth Annual KEronx of the degrees. The average of the mean temperatures at 27 stations possessing records for previous years was 0.5 degrees below the normal; excesses generally obtaining in southern New York and deficiencies in the northern section. The mean relative humidity was 79 per cent. The mean dew point was 20 degrees. The average precipitation for the State was 5.52 inches, as derived from the records of 92 stations. The greatest general precipitation exceeded 6 inches over considerable areas of north- ern and southeastern New York, while the least amount, ranging from 2 to 4 inches, obtained over portions of the central and western sections of the State. The maximum local amount was 0.51 inches at Bedford, the minimum being 2.50 inches at At- lanta. A list of the greatest local rates of precipitation will be found in the table of meteorological data. The heaviest rain and snow storms occurred as follows: On the 1st, general; on the 3d, heavy in the east, lighter in the northern section; on the 6th, the maximum for the month, very heavy in the southeast; on the 9th, general; on the 13th, heavy in northern New York; on the 19th and 20th, heavy in northeastern sections; on the 30th, very heavy on the coast, lightest in western New York. The average total snowfall, as reported by 62 widely distributed sta- tions, was 25.3 inches. The amounts for the various regions were approximately as follows: The Western Plateau and Champlain Valley, 35 inches; the Northern Plateau and St. Law- rence Valley, 40-45 inches; the Central Lakes and Eastern Pla- teau, 20 inches; the G-reat Lakes, 30 inches; the Hudson Valley, 15 inches; the Coast Kegion, 8 inches. The average precipita- tion at 29 stations possessing records for previous years, was 2.24 inches above the normal; excesses occurring at all stations. The amounts were the greatest observed for February at the following stations, whose records cover the periods specified: Elmira, 16 years; Cooperstown, 43 years; Port Jervis, 13 years; Waverly, 15 years; Boyds Corners, 26 years; Plattsburg Bar- racks, 38 years; Madison Barracks, 36 years; Oswego, 26 years; Ithaca, 18 years. New York Weather Bureau. 55 The average number of days on which the precii^itation amounted to 0.01 inches or more was 14.2; the rain-frequency in northern New York and the Great Lake Kegions considerably exceeding that over other sections. The average number of clear days was 6.7; of partly cloudy days, 8.4; and of cloudy days, 13.9; giving an average cloudiness of 57 per cent, for the State. The greatest cloudiness obtained over northern New York and the Grreat Lake Region. The prevailing direction of the wind was from the west. The average total wind travel at 6 stations of the National Bureau was 10,147 miles; the totals being generally above the usual values in both the Coast and Great Lake Region. The maximum velocity recorded at the above stations was 65 miles per hour at New York on the 7th. Lightning was observed in southeastern New York on the 6th, and a sharp thunderstorm also occurred in that section on the 28th. Hail fell on the 3d, 4th, 6th, 13th, 23d, 24th; and sleet fell on the 1st, 3d, 4th, 6th and 29th. Lunar halos were observed on the 27th and 28th. The weather of February presented many exceptional features, the most prominent being, firstly, an abnormally low mean pres- sure over the State, and also, on the 6th, the lowest actual barometer recorded in Central New York for 18 years or more; secondly, an excessive precipitation both of rain and snow, break- ing many records of 20 to 43 years in extent for the month; and thirdly, as regards temperature, the minima of the 17th in northern New York reached verv nearlv the lowest values ever observed in this State, while the average temperature of the day was the lowest yet recorded by this Bureau. The first half of the month was marked by frequent storms of rain, snow and wind, the temperature throughout the period being above the normal. During the second half of February brighter and cold weather prevailed, the deficiency of tempera- ture very nearly balancing the excess of the first period. The 56 Eighth Annual Report op the closing days of the month, however, were mild and springlike, the snow disappearing rapidly in all sections, causing ice jambs and freshets in the southern rivers. Twelve low pressure areas passed eastward in the vicinity of the State during the month; a number considerably in excess of the usual storm frequency for February. These disturbances were generally strongly developed, bringing high winds and a large precipitation, especially during the first half and at the close of the month. Storm centres passed to the north of our borders on the 1st, 5th, 10th, 24th and 28th, on all of which dates the temperature was above the normal. Severe storms moved along the coast on the 6th and 9th, and a third of lesser strength on the 29th; while on the 13th, 15th, 19th and 24th depressions passed centrally within the borders of the State. The period from the 6th to the 13th was an exceptionally stormy one, begin- ning with the hurricane and heavy rain due to the coast storm of the 6th. This was closely followed by the cyclone of the 9th, which took a course nearly identical with the preceding, bringing heavy snow and continued high wind; and succeeding this, storms passing over Canada on the 11th and over south- eastern New York on the 13th prolonged the gales and snowfall. Traffic was seriously impeded in all parts of the State during this period, and in some sections of northern New York and along the lakes, railways were blocked by snowdrifts for several days. The number of well defined high i^ressure areas which influ- enced our weather in February- was five, their maximum pres- sures in this vicinity occurring on the 3d, 8th, 17th, 21st, 25th to 26th. The first and second highs were not strongly developed, but the latter brought a considerable depression of temperature, with fair weather on the 4th and 5th. The third anticyclone originated in the extreme northwest on the 12tli, and while re- maining nearly stationary for three days gained rapidly in in- tensity. On the 16th it spread along the Canadian border, at- tended by intense cold, which was felt in New York on the morn- ing of the 17th. This area then moved to the northeastern coast, New York Weather Bureau. 57 and the weather became rapidly warmer with the advance of the severe cyclone of the 19th. Both the fourth and fifth anticy- clones brought considerable depressions of temperature on the 21st and 2oth to 26th, but each was succeeded by a sharp rise due to approaching storm areas; and the month closed with a temperature about 15 degrees above the normal. 58 Eighth Annual Report of the Metforolooical Data Location of Stations.

March, 1896, ranks with February as a rough and windy month, presenting in its general features a series of seven strongly developed storms, bringing brief warm waves and heavy precipitation, alternating with longer periods of fair cold weather and high westerly winds. The average temperature was thus much below the normal. 78 Eighth Annual Report of the The most frequent snow and rain storms and the maximum cloudiness obtained from the 1st to the 11th, after which time auticyclonic conditions and brighter but windy weather pre- vailed. Heavy freshets due to the melting of the heavy snowfall of March, and that which had accumulated through the wooded r.plands in February, occurred several times during the month, causing much damage to property along the banks of the Gen- esee, Hudson and other river systems. Nine areas of low pressure, or about the usual number for March, passed in the vicinity of New York during the month. Three well-developed storms passed centrally within the limits of the State on the 1st, 7th and 19th ; the first and second of the series bringing high winds and heavy rain turning to snow, while the snowfall accompanying the third storm was the heaviest of the season, and was badly drifted by westerly gales. A cyclone which passed northward along the coast on the 11th developed the lowest pressure of March in that region, and during its pas- sage a severe blizzard was felt throughout the State. Three energetic depressions of a third class passed centrally over east- ern Canada on the 22d, 26th and 30th, bringing moderate rains for the State at large, high winds and warmer weather, espe- cially on the 30th, which was much the warmest day of the month. The above includes the principal cyclones of March, but in addition two broad and less sharply defined low areas ap- peared over the Central States and Lake Region on the 10th and 16th, the former bringing a moderate and the latter a heavy snowfall in this State. The high pressure systems, nine in number, generally took a northerly course toward the Atlantic coast, so that their maxi- mum pressures were felt in the vicinity of New York. The dates New York Weather Bureau. 79 cf nearest approach were the 4th, 10th, 13th, 18th, 20th and 21st, 24th, 27th to 28th, 30th and 31st. The maximum pressure and coldest weather were due to the first, third and sixth of the series, all of which followed the passage of severe cyclonic storms, thus giving steep pressure gradients and very high westerly winds. Snow melted rapidly during the warm waves of the 7th, 19th and 22d, but notwithstanding, the greater part of the State was well covered until near the close of the month, and even then much remained in northern New York, and in the wooded high- lands of other s-ections, frequently making it difficult to carry on the maple sugar harvest. Robins commonly made their appearance between the 26th and 30th, and blue birds were also seen at a few southern stations on the latter date. Wedgwood reported a heavy deposition of ice upon tree branches on the 1st. 80 Eighth Annual Report of the Meteorological Data Location of Statioxp. Barometer. Humidity, Tempeka- STATION.

The average of the mean pressures at six stations of the National Bureau was very slightly above the normal value, the departure at Albany being the greatest. The mean temperature of the State, as derived from the'records of 73 stations, was 61.0 degrees. The highest local mean was 65.8 degrees at Brooklyn and Wappingers Falls, and the lowest was 58.0 degrees at Oswego.

The minimum tempera- ture was 29 degrees at Varysburg on the 6th, and at Brentwood on the 8th. The mean monthly range of temperature for the State was 51 degrees, the greatest local range being 66 degrees at Brentwood, and the least 36 degrees at Oswego and Erie, Pa.

Generally the rainfall was evenly distributed over the .State, amounts exceeding four inches being reported only from a narrow belt in southern Allegany and Steuben counties, and from Romu- lus, Seneca county. General rains occurred on the 3d, 8th, 15th, 17th to 19th (excepting in the Hudson Valley and Atlantic Coast where rains occurred on the 19th to 21st) and from the 26th to the close of the month. The heaviest rainfall for the State occurred on the 28th. No snowfall was reported.

The number of rainy daj'S was very uniform over the State. The average number of clear days was 10.4; of jjartly cloudy days, 13.4; and of cloudy days, 7.2, giving an average cloudiness for the State of 48 per cent. '• The prevailing direction of the wind was from the southwest. The average wind travel at six stations of the National Bureau was 8,242 miles, which amount is considerabh' in excess of the usual values for May. The maximum velocity reported was 53 miles per hour at Buffalo on the 29th, direction from the west. Thunderstorms occurred on the 2d and 3d at a few stations in the Great Lake Region and Western Plateau ; on the 4th at one station each in the Western Plateau, Hudson Valley and Central Lake Region ; on the 5th in the Atlantic Coast Region and one sta- tion each in the Northern and Eastern Plateaus; on the 8th at four stations in the Western Plateau; on the 11th, at New York city; on the 14th at five stations in the Western Plateau and at Brooklyn; on the 15th, at five widely separated stations; on the 17th, general over the State excepting in the St. Lawrence and Champlain Valleys; on the 19th, at six stations in the south- eastern sections ; on the 24th at five stations in the Western Plat- eau; on the 25th, at four stations in the western sections; on the 26th, general in all regions excepting the St. Lawrence and Cham- plain Valleys; on the 28th, general excepting in regions north of the Mohawk Valley; on the 29th at four stations in the Eastern and Western Plateaus; on the 30th, at seven widely separated sta- tions; on the 31st at seven stations in the southeastern sections. Hail was reported on the 2d, 3d, 5th, 11th, 14th, 17th, 27th, 30th and 31st. ' Lunar halos were observed on the 19th, 21st and 22d. Auroras were observed on the 2d, 3d, 17th, 19th and 20th. 128 Eighth Annual Report of the Light frosts occurred on the 1st, 2d, 3d, 6th, Tth, 8th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 16th and 20th. The weather of May was characterized by the deficient rainfall, the rapid and great changes in temperature and the high general monthly mean. From the 1st to the 19th the mean temperature was continuously above normal for the season, the average excess being about 9 degrees. The period of greatest departure was from the 9th to the 11th inclusive, the warmest day being the 10th with station means ranging from 70 to 80 degrees and the general mean for the State of 73 degrees, or about 19 degrees above the normal for this date. A maximum temperature of 95 degrees occurred on the 10th and 11th. The principal depressions of tem- perature occurred on the 20th, with general light frosts over the State, and on the 29th to 31sft, the mean for the latter dates being slightly below normal. The general mean for the last third of the month was slightly in excess of the normal value. The principal periods of rainfall were on the 17th to 19th and 26th to the close of the month, accompanied by severe thunder- storms, destructive hail in restricted areas, and high winds along Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence Vallej'. Though rain fre- quency was but slightly less than usual, the precipitation was gen- erally very light until the latter part of the month. About the usual number of cyclonic storms for May affected weather conditions in New York. With the exception of those which passed in this region on the 18th, 26lh and 2Sth-29th, the storms were of very moderate intensity and all passed centrally north of New York State. The storm of the 28th moved rapidly from the southwest increasing in energy and passed centrally over the Great Lake Region and the St. Lawrence Valley, developing severe thunderstorms with general and the heaviest rains of the Xew York Weather Bureau. 129 rnontli. The depression occupied the region north of New York, moving slowly northeastward with diminished energy on the 30th, spreading thence southeastward over New England on the 31st, with general moderate rains and falling temperature throughout this State. The warm, dry weather that prevailed until about the 26th, while very favorable for carrying on plowing, planting and seed- ing, proved quite a serious drought to growing crops; meadows and pastures being the chief sufferers, and winter wheat and rye being somewhat affected. Work progressed rapidly, and was usually about ten days ahead of the season. Plowing* for corn was general at the beginning of the month, and some was planted. Hop pole setting was completed, and peppermint roots set out. Early asparagus was marketed on Long Island. Wheat and oats sowing was nearly completed by the 10th, and many potatoes had been planted. Fruits were in full bloom on the 10th. Apples bloomed profusely, pears, plums, quinces, cherries, etc., rather light, while peaches were extremely scarce, being killed by the February freeze. The serious drouth was thoroughly relieved by general and copious rains of the 26th and 28th, but too late to save the grass crop. Meadows and pastures had suffered severely, and at the close of the month farmers were busy sowing fodder crops. Delayed plowing and planting started with renewed vigor after the rains, and at the close of the month nearly all the corn and most of the potatoes had been planted, and early planted pota- toes were up. Bean planting was well under way; tobacco setting had begun; and a fine crop of strawberries was being picked. Hops were thriving, and considered ten days ahead. The last week was cool and windy. No damage was done to vegetation by the light frost of the 20th. 130 Eighth Annual Keport of the MkTEOROLOOICA L 1) ATA Location of ST.vrio.\<. Barometer. Humidity. Tempera- STATION.

The average of the mean temperatures at 26 stations possessing records for previous years was 1.2 degrees below the normal, excesses being reported only from 4 stations of the west- ern and central sections. The mean relative humidity was 73 per cent. The mean dew point was 55 degrees. The average precipitation, as derived from the records of 94 stations, was 3.19 inches. The maximum general rainfall ex- ceeded 6 inches in portions of the southern tier of counties, while less than 2 inches were reported over considerable areas near Lake Ontario. The greatest local amount was 6.67 inches at Brooklyn, and the least, 1.32 inches, at Rose, Wayne county.

General showers were also reported on the 16th, 21st, 24th and 28th. The average precipitation at 28 stations possess- ing records for previous years was 0.27 inches below the normal amount. Excesses, which obtained at 9 stations, were greatest in the Atlantic Coast Region. The average number of days on which the precipitation amounted to 0.01 inch or more was 9.2. The number of rainy days was least in western New York and greatest in the eastern and northern sections. The average number of clear days 12.1 ; of partly cloudy daj's, 10.9; and of cloudy days, 7.0; giving an average cloudiness of 45 ])or cent, for the State. The cloudiness was very nearly uniform over the State. New York Weather Bureau. 151 The prevailing direction of the wind was from the southwest. The average wind travel at six stations of the National Bureau was 6396 miles. The travel was generally in excess of the usual mileage for the month. The maximum velocity at the above stations was 42 miles per hour at Buffalo on the 26th. Thunderstorms occurred at Humphrey and Jamestown on the 4th; at 4 western stations and at Honeymead Brook on the 5th; at a few stations of all sections on the 6th and 7th; generally over the State on the 8th and 9th ; at Atlantic coast stations on the 10th; at Gloversville on the 11th; at coast stations and at Humphrey on the 14th ; at South Canisteo on the 15th ; in western New York and at Lebanon Springs on the 16th; in all excepting the northern sections on the 17th; at Gloversville on the 18th; at Wedgewood and Lebanon Springs on the 19th; in all but the northern section on the 21st; at Jamestown and Bedford on the 26th; in western, northern and eastern New York on the 28th; at Lebanon Springs on the 29th. Hail was reported on the 15th and 18th. Light frosts occurred in some portions of the highlands on the 2nd, 3d, 11th and 30th. The weather of June was generally pleasant, and for the most part favorable for farming interests. The average temperature was slightly lower than usual, the nights being especially cool. A warm wave occurred between the 3d and 10th, during which maxima of 90 degrees or more were obtained. This was succeeded by a period of deficient temperature lasting until the 17th, but thereafter growing warmer until the mean maximum for the month was obtained on the 20th. The average for the last week was slightlv below the normal. 152 Eighth Annual Report op the General rains were confined mainly to the first decade, the showers which followed being more local in character and rather insulficient in the east and north. Abont the usual percentage of sunshine obtained over the State. Thunderstorms occurred on 18 days, but generally were not very severe. During June the weather of New York was influenced by seven areas of high and five areas of low pressure; the number of the latter being about the usual average for the month. The first and second depressions, which were broad and ill defined, passed east- ward over New York on the 6th and 10th respectively, bringing general rains over the State. On the 14th a storm of marked energy passed along the Atlantic coast, accompanied by heavy rain and gales. The succeeding low pressure areas, four in num- ber, passed north of the State on the 20th, 21st, 2Gth and 28th, bringing thunderstorms and local rains, with rising temperatures, especially on and about the 20th. The most important high pressure sj'stems passed over New York on the 2nd, 24th and 30th; the accompanying depressions of temperature being sufficient to cause light frosts in the valleys of the plateaus. The drouth which prevailed during a part of May, and early in June, was broken by the abundant rains of the 6th to 10th, and thereafter the rainfall was generally sufficient for vegetation, ex- cepting in some northern sections and east of Lake Ontario. Dur- ing the third week heavy showers in the south caused a considera- ble damage by flooding. Early haying was general on or before the 20th with discouraging results, owing to the early drouth. Wheat and other grains were in fair condition, oats, especially, growing well. Small tree fruits were scarce, excepting in the New York Weather Bureau. 153 northern counties, but apples and berries were abundant. Cool nights somewhat retarded the growth of garden truck. Heavy rains occurring in southern New York on the 11th and 26th washed the soil badly in the hilly sections, and damaged bridges and other property along water courses. Four cows were killed by lightning near New Lisbon on the 8th. 154 Eighth Annual Eeport of the Meteorological Data Location of Stations. Barometer. Humidity. Tempera STATION.

Meteorological Summary for Jaly, 1896. The average atmospheric pressure (reduced to sea-level and 32 degrees Fahr.) for the State of New York during July was 30.00 inches. The highest barometer was 30.40 inches at New York city on the 19th, and the lowest was 29.62 inches at Albany and Oswego on the 15th. The highest mean pressure, 30.03 inches, obtained at New York city, and the lowest, 29.98 inches, at Os- wego and Number Four. The average of the mean pressures at six stations of the National Bureau was 0.03 inches above the nor- mal; the excess being greatest in southern and eastern New York. The mean temperature of the State, as derived from the records of 72 stations was 70.4 degrees. The highest local mean was 75.5 degrees at Brooklyn, and the lowest 65.0 at Number Four. The highest general daily mean was 76 degrees on the 12th, 29th and 30th, the lowest being 64 degrees on the 17th. The maximum temperature reported was 96 degrees at Mt. Morris on the 6th and 7th, and the minimum 40 degrees at Friendship on the 17th and 18th, and at Saranac Lake on the 31st. The mean monthly range of temperature for the State was 42 degrees, the greatest local range being 51 degrees at Mt. Morris and Bloomville, and the least 28 degrees at Manhattan Beach. The mean daily range was 20 degrees. The greatest local daily range was 46 degrees at Bloomville on the 1st, and the least was 2 degrees at Port Jervis on the 24th. The mean temperatures of the various sec- tion of the State were as follows: The Western Plateau, 69.6 de- grees; the Eastern Plateau, 69.7 degrees; the Northern Plateau, 172 Eighth Annual Report of the G7.7 degrees; the Atlantic Coast, 73.0 degrees; the Hudson Valley, 72.7 degrees; the Mohawk Valley, 70.2 degrees; the Champlain Valley, 69.5 degrees; the St. Lawrence Valley, G8.9 degrees; the Great Lakes, 71.0 degrees; the Central Lakes, 71.4 degrees. The average of the mean temperatures at 26 stations possessing rec- ords for previous years was 0.6 degrees above the normal. Ex- cesses generall^^ occurred at western and southern stations, and deficiencies in the north. The mean relative humidity was 75 per cent. The mean dew point was 61 degrees. The. average precipitation, as derived from the records of 93 stations, was 4.90 inches. The greatest general precipitation ex- ceeded 6 inches over considerable areas of western, northern and southeastern New York, while in portions of the St. Law- rence and upper Hudson Valley and on eastern Long Island, less than 4 inches fell. The maximum local amount was 8.71 inches at Port Jervis, and the minimum, 2.43 inches at North Hammond. The rain periods covered the dates from the 3d to the 91h, with a maximum of 0.34 inches for the State on the 4th; from the 13th to the 15th; from the 19th to the 25th, with the maximum general rainfall of the month on the 20th, and from the 27th to the 30th. The average precipitation at 28 stations possessing records for previous years was 1.05 inches above the normal amount. The largest excesses generally obtained in western New York, while in the eastern and northern sections 10 stations reported deficien- cies. The amounts at Angelica, Humphre}' and Elmira were the greatest shown by the records of these stations for August. The average number of days on which the precipitation amounted to 0.01 inch or more was 12.3, which is considerably New York Weather Bureau. 173^ greater than the usual rain frequency for the summer months. The maximum number was reported from the Eastern and Northern Plateaus, and the southeastern section. The average number of clear days was 10.3; of partly cloudy days, 12.3; of cloudy days^ 8.4; giving an average cloudiness of 50 per cent, for the State. The cloudiness was greatest in northern New York, and least in the western and southern sections. The prevailing direction of the wind was from the southwest. The average -wind-travel at 6 stations of the National Bureau was 6,931 miles, the travel generally being greater than usual for the month. The maximum velocity reported from the above sta- tions was 50 miles per hour at New York city on the 27th. Thunderstorms occurred at 10 stations on the 3d; at 10 stations on the 4th; at 5 stations on the 5th; at 8 stations on the 6th; at 4 stations on the 7th; at 3 stations on the 9th; at 3 stations on the 10th; at 1 station on the 12th; at 10 stations on the 13th; at 3 stations on the 14th; at 10 stations on the 15th; at 2 stations on the 16th; at 7 stations on the 20th; at 2 stations on the 21st; at 9 stations on the 22d; at 3 stations on the 23d; at 2 stations on the 24th; at 1 station on the 26th; at 13 stations on the 27th; at 12 stations on the 28th ; at 17 stations on the 29th ; at 13 stations on the 30th ; at 1 station on the 31st. Hail fell on the 3d. A solar halo was observed on the 2d. . The weather during July averaged slightly warmer than usual ; hot waves during the second and fourth weeks alternating with brief cool periods about the 6th, 17th and 24th; but few excessive- ly high or unseasonably low temperatures occurred. There was an abundant rainfall, commonly in the form of local showers which were followed by bright pleasant weather; hence the 174 Eighth Annual Keport of the month was very favorable for the growth of crops, though less so for harvesting operations. Thunderstorms occurred on 23 days being more frequent in southwestern Xew York than elsewhere. Phenomenally heavy rains occurred at some localities in the southeast on the Uth, and in the western section on the 20th. During the month, the weather of Xew York was influenced by five areas of high and seven areas of low pressure, the num- ber of the latter being about the usual storm frequency for July in this vicinity. Five low areas passed to the eastward over Canada on the 9th, 15th, 22d, 28th and 30th; while on the fifth and 24th, depressions passed centrally within the borders of the State. The lows passing north of the State commonly spread over the Canadian provinces, moving slowly, and giving southerly winds and warm waves over the northeastern States, as occurred in the most marked degree with the depressions of the 9th, loth, 22d and 30th. The lows which passed centrally over New York were of moderate energy, bringing general, but not excessive, rains. The high pressure systems were generally large and well de- fined, but developed no central pressures much exceeding 30.3 inches. The first and third area, only, moved northeastward to the Atlantic; the remainder, after traversing the central or northern States, passed to the south Atlantic coast, where they became nearly stationary. The highs, with their accompanying cool waves, were most strongly felt in this vicinity on and about the 2d, 8th, 14th, 18th and 24th, the greatest depression of tem- perature occurring in northern Xew York on the 16th under the influence of the fourth area; but no damaging frosts occurred. An injurious drouth which prevailed in the eastern counties at the opening of the month was relieved by abundant rains New York Weather Bureau. 175 be^'inning on the 4th. The weather continued rather cool for growth during the first decade after which higher temperatures and frequent showers brought vegetation rapidly forward. The reports of the first week showed oats as heading and barley and spring wheat ripening; winter wheat was cut and some rye har- vested early in the month; by the 18th considerable amounts of barley had been cut and the oat harvest was commenced on the 30th; corn, tobacco and hops made satisfactory growth, the latter being in blossom by the 10th. Grapes promised well, and the apple crop was unusually good. Local storms. — Near Honeymead brook, Dutchess county, lightning caused the loss of four barns, with contents, on the 3d; and one person was killed at Sharon Station. The storm was ac- companied by destructive wind and hail, with a cloudburst and flood about Amenia. Lockport reports the heaviest rain on rec- ord at that point on the 20th. A local storm at Waverly on the 27th prostrated trees, unroofed buildings, and laid flat the grain in many fields. 176 Eighth Annual Keport of the Meteorological Data Location ok Stations. Uarometer.
